What it is:

Sports guards (mouthguards) are custom-made dental devices designed to protect teeth, gums, and jaw from injury during sports and physical activity.

Why it’s recommended:

Over-the-counter mouthguards often don’t fit well and can fall out or offer inadequate protection. Poor fit quality can also contribute to additional trauma to the teeth. Custom sports guards are highly recommended for children, teens, and adults participating in contact or high-impact sports such as football, hockey, basketball, martial arts, or skateboarding.

How it works:

We create a precise impression of your teeth and fabricate a custom-fitted guard that offers superior comfort, fit, and protection. Unlike store-bought versions, our guards are designed to stay securely in place and allow for better breathing and speaking while offering maximum shock absorption.
